Yael Rosen is MAZON’s Director of Community Engagement and has been working to serve her local LA community and the larger Jewish community as a non-profit professional and volunteer for over 20 years. She previously raised funds for organizations including Repair the World, Momentum, UCLA, Starlight Children’s Foundation, and United Jewish Appeal. One of the many reasons Yael is excited to be working for MAZON is in honor and fulfillment of the teaching of her grandmother, a Holocaust survivor, who taught her the importance of tikkun olam (repairing the world). Yael worked full-time while attending Hebrew University of Jerusalem, CSUN, and UCLA and earned her B.A. in Communications. She holds a Certified Fund Raising Executive (CFRE) credential and is in the process of earning a M.S. from Gratz College in Non-Profit Management.
